That was a case when Jobs's 'vision was on the money.

But his obstinence occasionally led him to demand the wrong thing. Sometimes he was so obviously mistaken that his subordinates conducted silent mutinies. One example concerned the Macintosh's memory. Memory size helps dictate a computer's capabilities: the larger the memory, the more complicated tasks it can handle. But though prices were always falling, memory was expensive. Too much memory, and the computer will outprice itself out of existence. Memory is measured in kilobytes, bytes being the equivalent of words in computerspeak:. The Apple II had 48K bytes of memory. A standard 1982 IBM PC shipped with 64K-the same memory size that jef Raskin had originally envisioned for Macintosh.
